We are delighted to inform you that The Bulwell Academy has achieved the Carers Federation Quality Standard in Carer Support accreditation.
Read the Carers’ Federation Assessment of The Bulwell Academy here.
During the rigorous assessment process, The Bulwell Academy evidenced a clear commitment and a comprehensive approach to supporting our young carers, which filters across our academy.
We are proud to offer a wide range of tailored support to assist our Young Carers both inside and outside of school. This includes extra support with homework, flexibility around calling home, a key person to talk to at school, and a growing network of support from other Young Carers.
We are also pleased to have secured links with local external agencies such as TuVida, who are instrumental in providing care and support to many of our Young Carers.
To support the identification of Young Carers, we have developed a designated Young Carers page, on our school website, which includes details of what a Young Carer is and who to contact if you feel that your child is a Young Carer.
